Porcini pizza with pesto and burrata

This porcini and burrata pizza with pesto is the perfect way to celebrate autumn! It’s with a hint of a garlicky pesto, then loaded with cheese and topped with caramelized fresh wild mushrooms. It’s smells and tastes like heaven and if you add a smidge of red pepper flakes it will bring the porcinis to another level. Delicious!

Instructions

Combine yeast with water and honey, sift the flour and add milk, oil and salt. Knead the dough for 10 minutes in your mixer. Cover and leave for 2 hours to rise.

Combine the ingredients for the pesto.

Clean the mushrooms and cut into slices. Heat the butter in a skillet, add the mushrooms and cook over a high heat until golden brown. Season with salt and pepper.

Divide the pizza dough into two and roll out. Transfer to a floured baking sheet and spread the pesto. Add mozzarella and burrata, arrange the mushrooms over the top and sprinkle with pumpkin seeds. Bake for about 10 minutes at 240°C.
